Chapter 159 The Secret inside the Coffin (2/2)

“Really?” asked Qing Zhui with an innocent look.

Ning Tao walked past Qing Zhui and out of the store. This time Zhang Lei saw him but didn't pay attention to him. His attention was still on Qing Zhui.

“Why did I lie to you? You know what? You leave me a phone number so I can contact you,” Zhang Lei suggested.

Qing Zhui looked out at Ning Tao, who had already walked out of the store.

Ning Tao didn't look at her, but gave her a slight nod.

Then Qing Zhui said to the salesman, “Okay, my phone number is…”

After telling him her phone number, Qing Zhui left the Two Dimensions Bookstore on the excuse that she had other things to do. However, she did not immediately talk to Ning Tao, but walked a long way before she got close to him and walked beside him.

“Brother Ning, what have you found?” she inquired.

“A big fish,” replied Ning Tao. “Jiang Tingting's disappearance is related to the bookstore we just visited. They have cleaned up the traces at the scene so that police experts failed to discover the clue. But smells don't fool people.”

Qing Zhui put out her long tongue and then retracted. “The guy named Zhang Lei gave me a business card of his boss and asked me to play cosplay, but I smelled rotting soul on him. He is a very bad man.”

“Show me that card,” Ning Tao said.

Qing Zhui handed him the card.

Ning Tao took a look at the card, and a sneer appeared on his lips. “Zhang Weibiao? You can fool the police, but you can't fool me. I'll make you atone for your sins.”

“Shall we go and find him now?” Qing Zhui asked.

“No,” replied Ning Tao. “Now that you have given him your phone number, he's sure to call you. You're too pretty for him to resist.”

“Hha…”

“Why are you laughing?”

Qing Zhui looked happy and replied, “It's the first time you said that I'm pretty. I can't help but feel happy.”

Ring, ring…

Ning Tao's phone suddenly rang.

It was Bai Jing on the phone. “Where are you? Xin Zhiyu has sent someone to rush us. You guys get over here quickly and we'll go to the Xin family for dinner together.”

“We're on the street,” Ning Tao said. “Tell me the address. We'll go straight and meet you there.”

“All right, you just call a cab and tell the driver to go to the Prosperous House. The driver will know where it is. I'll meet you at the gate.” Bai Jing then hung up.

Qing Zhui pursed her lips, and complained. “She didn't even talk to me. That's too much.”

“She should be in a hurry,” Ning Tao explained. “But it's the first time I've seen a demon put money before cultivation.” As he spoke, he reached out and got a taxi.

“Brother Ning, in fact… I…” Qing Zhui seemed to want to say something, but she was also hesitant to say it.

Ning Tao opened the door and said, “Get in.”

He knew what she wanted to say was probably related to Bai Sheng and Bai Jing, but for some reason he didn't know she couldn't tell him. Ning Tao understood her. Everyone had their own secrets and circ.u.mstances. She could tell him or not as she liked. In short, he would not force her. He was curious about Bai Sheng, but it was okay not to know about him.

After Qing Zhui got on the car, Ning Tao also got into the car, and said to the driver, “Please drive us to the Prosperous House.”

The driver looked back at Ning Tao and asked, “Are you sure you're going to the Prosperous House?”

“Didn't I make it very clear? Is there a problem?” Ning Tao asked.

“The people who go there usually drive fancy cars worthy of millions, even helicopters, instead of taking taxis, so I'm a little bit surprised,” the driver replied. “I just want to make sure.”

“Go, then,” said Ning Tao.

The driver grunted and started to drive off in one direction.
